URSS
Celebrates 10 Years with
2015 Schedule Release
The United Rebel Sprint
Series will be entering its
10th Season this year and is
proud to announce its 2015
racing schedule. For the
past nine years, the URSS
has been the Midwest’s
Premiere 305 Sprint Car
Racing Series. Focusing on
putting on the best shows
for the racing fans has
always been the mantra for
Series Promoter Rick Salem,
who, when setting up the
series 9 years ago, told
drivers and team owners that
he wanted to leave the Rule
Book alone for ten years to
see how much The URSS
Series could grow. The
Series has produced seven
different Champions in the
first nine years, in 2014
there were 16 different
drivers who graced the
Winners Circle in 26 races
proving that you can build a
competitive 305 Sprint Car
Series that provides parity
between all drivers and
teams regardless of how many
years of experience they
have under their belts.
This season’s only change
will be that the National
Championship will be
determined by points earned
at the ten “National Events”
on the 2015 Schedule. At
these National Events the
competitors will be racing
for purses of between $1000
to $2000 dollars to win.
The Kansas Region points
Title will still run under
the current rules of
counting 80% of the races
run within that Region.
The 2015 racing season will
kick off with a two day show
at the Liberal Fairgrounds
Speedway on April 18th &
19th. The Rebels have made
16 appearances at the famed
3/8’s mile venue .
